Disability Intimacy: Essays on Love, Care, and Desire by Alice Wong

adventurous emotional funny informative reflective medium-paced

5.0

Disability Intimacy centers disabled voices sharing about intimacy from many different contexts and personal experiences. This work provides insight into a wide range of topics including intimacy within romance, activism, sex, caregiving, friendship, community, and communication. This work is crucial literature to better recognize and understand the wide array of experiences and intersectionalities that impact individual experiences surrounding intimacy and disability. After reading this work I came away with new knowledge and a desire to listen better and learn more, particularly surrounding accessibility movements, plurality, and the assisted suicide movement in relation to disability rights and justice. I highly recommend this work. I was thankful to receive an arc from NetGalley in exchange for my honest thoughts on the work.
